The 101 best sex scenes in movies of all time
When it comes to sex, the movies are currently going through a bit of a dry spell. Sure, recent movies like Challengers and Babygirl had some hot-and-horny moments, but it feels like it’s been a long while since we’ve seen a truly steamy, taboo-shattering roll in the hay – or hot tub, or midsize sedan, or literal bay of hale – in a major studio film. Is it because of society’s general rightward shift recently? Or did filmmakers start listening to those misguided social media debates about the merits of the sex scene?
In any case, it’s far past time the movies got back to getting it on. Yes, in some cases, sex scenes can seem pointless. In the best examples of cinematic boffing, though, sex tells stories. It develops characters. Sometimes it’s a punchline, sometimes it’s terrifying. Sometimes, yes, it’s simply meant to arouse – but titillation has value, too. So pour yourself some wine and slip into something a little more comfortable: here are the 101 best sex scenes of all-time.
